Let’s face it: these are (still) super stressful times. It doesn’t help that we’re all sitting at home trying to watch anything but the news in an effort to stay calm and carry on. But we have another solution. It’s time to treat yourself to a little TLC via self-care products.
Now is a great time to develop a self-care routine. Investing some time and a little bit of money into de-stressing your mind, body and soul isn’t selfish — it’s absolutely necessary. Plus, you actually don’t have to spend a fortune to feel better. No, really. Which is certainly great news because the bulk of your funds may be dedicated to other necessities. Or you may feel the need to save your dollars. We know we do.
That’s why we put together a definitive list of efficient self-care products that are thrifty and frankly safer alternatives to a costly spa session. Not to mention pack in a whole lot of tranquility. Here are some things that’ll bring you an extra dose of Zen and make your day better. And they all ring in at less than $20. Bonus: The low prices will provide another form of stress relief.
